Physicist and Engineer
When I was working on my PhD in physics at Arizona State University, I spent 3.5 years as a teaching assistant. I taught labs and recitation classes for calculus and non-calculus based introductory physics classes.

Nadya
Trilingual Wesleyan Grad: Educator, Storyteller, & Globetrotter
I grew up as the child, niece, and granddaughter of three teachers. Nonetheless, at school I was also the hardworking nerd who spent more time studying than the rest and for whom repetition, encouragement, and opportunity were essential to my academic success—and confidence. It makes perfect sense to me that some five years after high school I would return to the very setting that had been the site of my growth. Beginning in 2008, I served as an outdoor educator with elementary school studen... Read more

Alex
Passionate about The Fine Arts, In Theory and Practice
I love making art and finding beauty in the way people visually interpret ideas. I view tutoring as an exchange in thoughts, while the objective is of course to help you learn material, I'm sure in many cases I will end up learning a great about myself through engaging with young, creative, minds. I have knowledge about Art objects and history, but I also consider myself a resource to people who want to get more involved in the arts. As working artist myself I pair knowledge of material and ... Read more

I aided my peers in note taking, test taking, time management skills and memory while adjusting my teaching style to best suit my... Read more
